Abstract
We present a complete data-processing procedure for quantitative reconstruction of three-dimensional (3D) refractive index fields from limited multidirectional interferometric data. The proposed procedure includes two parts: (1) extraction of the projection data from limited multidirectional interferograms by a regularized phase-tracking technique and wavefront fitting and (2) reconstruction of the 3D refractive index fields by a modified polynomial approximation method. It has been shown that the procedure gives a satisfactory solution to the reconstruction issue in interferometric tomography, from the initial projection data extraction to the final image reconstruction. Computer simulation and experimental results are both presented.
